What I'm saying is: As always, we start with plumbing and work our way
up to porcelain.  We do have git diff-files, diff-index, diff-tree, so
I don't see what the problem with diff-link is.  The point is that we
can get an initial scripted version out quickly.

And no, I never suggested a git log-link.
